Happy Farm Ranch

Chapter 20
The bus drivers driving from the suburbs to the city are quite sturdy, and the fat buses are running on the road as if they are about to take off.

Su Mu didn't dare to be distracted at all, sitting on the seat and tightly grasping the armrest beside him, for fear of being thrown out by the huge inertia when turning a corner.

Fearful and finally got out of the car, he breathed a sigh of relief and prepared to go back to the shop.

Unexpectedly, before he had gone far, he looked up and saw an old man carrying a pole, with a bamboo basket hanging on each end. He could only hear the chirping and screaming inside. Small rose-red hairballs.

"Chicken is only two yuan each!"

Seeing that there were many people at the bus stop, especially those with children, the old man yelled loudly to solicit business.

Su Mu had an idea, although the grassland in the space is not wide, but it surrounds the whole Qingshitai, the area should not be underestimated.Nowadays, although cattle and sheep are bought for grazing, they are still not used effectively.How about buying a few chicks and throwing them in, and you can eat pure natural eggs when you grow up!
"Are there any undyed ones?" He also approached the old man and asked.

Seeing that the business can be opened, the old man said cheerfully, "The dyed ones cost two yuan, and the undyed ones cost one yuan. Young man, how many do you want?"

"The ones that are not dyed, bring me a dozen or twenty." Su Mu understood in his heart that the dyed color of the chicks looks good, but they are poisonous and cannot be raised at all.

Hearing that he wanted so much, the old man immediately cheered up, put the pole on the ground and yelled loudly: "Okay! Come on, you pick it yourself."

The bamboo baskets in the back are all undyed, and the yellow and tender little fur balls are huddled together and squawking softly, which is pitiful.

Su Mu pinched his feet and picked up one, only to see that the little chicken obediently did not move.

"Well, this is a hen. It seems that the young man is from the countryside." The old man lit a cigarette and asked with a smile, "You have so many chicks, where do you raise them?"

"First raise them on the balcony, and when they get bigger, there will be chicken coops." Su Mu lied casually, and with just such a little effort, he has already picked out several small chickens and put them on the lid of the bamboo basket.

"Now the eggs in the chicken farm are really tasteless to eat, and it's too expensive to buy real stupid eggs. It's okay if you raise a few at home, at least it's much better than buying them." The old man sat I spit out a smoke ring on the curb, "Remember to soak some millet when you go back, chop some chopped vegetable leaves in it, and put it in cages when it gets bigger. It's better not to buy those chicken feeds. It sounds better than singing, it's full of What additives."

Sumu picked a total of 25, and bought nearly half of them at once.

"How can you take all these?" After collecting the money, the old man pointed to the pile of huddled little fur balls and said, "I don't have a bag or anything."

"I have a solution!" I really didn't think of such a question just now, although the chick is small, it is different from a dead thing.Since he couldn't take the little chickens into the space under the watchful eyes of everyone, Su Mu could only frown and grit his teeth, took off his coat, wrapped it around a bunch of little fur balls, and walked away.

The little chicks are obviously used to the bumps, and they don't have much problem with being squeezed together.

Trotting all the way back to the shop, Miao Ziyao and Pangpang were watching the Gongdou show while watching the TV. Even when he entered the door, they only said hello and didn't take their eyes here.Su Mu just got away with it. He was thinking about eating meat and eggs when he was raised, so he went straight to his room and locked the door, and carried the chicks into the space.

Occasionally, one or two cries of lambs and calves could be heard, which actually gave the space a little vitality.In the past, it was always quiet and scary, there was no movement at all, and it was dead.

He found a small pot to soak the chicks with millet, but Su Mu didn't dare to scatter them on the grass.

Although it is not likely to get lost, they are new to such a big place, and they are not sure where they will go. Anyway, they are still small and do not pose any threat. It is more appropriate to raise them on the bluestone platform first.

Carrying the small sickle for harvesting leeks, Su Mu jumped into the grass and bent over to cut a few times. There was a large pile of fresh grass.

Hold it and throw it in front of the chicks, let them bounce on it and peck the grass leaves to eat.He carefully prepared water for the lambs, calves and chicks.

After finishing working with the living things, Su Mu went to do experiments.

On the way back from the suburbs, he saw a large orchard just blooming, and suddenly had an idea.

Since "thin" vegetables cannot be planted on the land of the space, can you try to plant some fruit trees or something?

At the very least, they are trees. No matter how strong the root system of pasture grass is, it may not be able to compete with fruit trees for nutrition.Anyway, the space is still under development, so Su Mu wanted to try it out.

He casually gnawed on an apple he bought, and used a knife to dig out the seeds from the core of the apple and put them on a plate.

Then spray the diluted space water on it, and after a few seconds, the apple seeds began to grow tender sprouts, and after waiting for a while, it felt that the sprouts were almost ready, so Su Mu picked up the plate and flipped over the wall.With the experience of growing vegetables last time, he did not act recklessly. Instead, he chose a good location and dug out all the soil and grass roots with a shovel.

The two energetic little lambs are quite good, and they are not afraid of people. When they saw Su Mu working on the cat's waist, they kept rubbing against him.

The calf was far away, and from time to time it called "moo" twice, as if to say hello.

"Almost forgot, you two are still here, don't make trouble for my apple saplings." Su Mu immediately remembered that he had to guard against "house thieves", and hurriedly put away a few small sprouts on the plate.

He dug all the way to the deep soil where the pasture root system was not so developed, and he hoped to put in a small sprout.

Obviously, the effect of the soil here is really similar to that of space water, but the efficiency is slightly lower.

As soon as the small sprout touched the soil, it began to grow slowly. After Su Mu felt that its root system had penetrated deep, he covered the soil layer by layer.

Apple trees don’t grow as fast as pastures. Su Mu was afraid that the two-foot-high young fruit seedlings would be eaten by the lambs, so he had to sit and watch.

The two round-bellied little lambs hugged him vigorously, and even tried to lick Su Mu's face with their pink and tender tongues.

"Go, go, you two are lambs and not dogs, why do you still like to add people?" Su Mu looked at the two lambs carefully. There was a small piece of black hair on the forehead of the slightly larger one; fair and clear. "Okay, from now on you'll be called Dabai and you'll be called Xiaobai, I need some water to wash you both up, you smell like sheep. Go and play with your brother Niu!"

I pushed the buttocks of the two lambs, and finally pushed them away from me. At this time, the apple seedlings had grown to the thickness of a thumb, and they were pulled up nearly two meters high.

After reckoning that the three little guys would not be misfortune again, Su Mu confidently took the shovel and planted a tree.

The six apple trees had all grown up enough to be safe from the cattle and sheep, so he returned to the Qingshi platform and hugged a pile of grass for the little chickens.

"Papa!" After tidying up the space and about to go out, the sound of splashing water suddenly came from the side of the grape trellis.

Su Mu took a look over there and remembered that there were a lot of fish fry and shrimp fry in the two super-sized tanks!I don't know if it's dead now.

"You guys are in a meeting!" Su Mu quickly walked over to take a look, and Su Mu was dumbfounded.

In the big tank where the fry are kept, all kinds of small fish grow to three inches in length. The water tank that was originally quite large is now full, and it is full of small fish!

Fortunately, the water in the space was spared, otherwise, with this density, 90.00% of the fish would have to die.

Now the top floor was almost dying of thirst, Su Mu hurried out of the space and went to the kitchen to find a bucket, then picked up the strainer and turned around to go to the side of the water tank.

It doesn't matter what species it is, just pick up a small fish with a lot of meat and fish it into the bucket.

In the past, elementary school textbooks said "beating roe deer with a ladle and scooping fish", but now Su Mu is simply addicted to it again.But he used a sieve, and if there was too little water and too many fish, he couldn't scoop water out.

The lively little fish scooped up most of the bucket, and the space in the tank was a little looser.

Su Mu hurriedly looked at the other large tank next to it. There was some sand in the middle to make a small terrace, and a group of lobster seedlings were raised.

It's a pity that lobsters obviously don't grow as fast as small fish, and now they are all inch-long, and there is not much meat to eat.

He didn't know what feed to feed the remaining small fish and lobsters. Later, he saw that the chicks were having fun pecking at the pasture, so he casually threw a handful of pasture into the two tanks.

After coming out of the space, Su Mu took the time to call his father and discuss with him the plan he had been pondering all night.After a long time, the father and son finalized the details.

In view of the many years of hard work outside, Dad agrees with his suggestion very much.They even made suggestions and gave several candidate locations, and only waited for Su Mu to prepare well. After returning home and meeting with the "big troop", they went to find the most suitable place to build the "Peach Blossom Spring".

"Miaomiao, Fatty, Brother Su will show you something today!" After hanging up the phone, Su Mu showed them a bucket full of lively fish, "This small shop has not been open for a long time, but the relationship between us The friendship is deep enough. Have a happy meal, and wish our store a happy closing!"

"Close the door?!" Miao Ziyao and Pangpang said in unison, their faces full of shock.

After a while, it was Miao Ziyao who reacted first.

She had heard Su Mu say that opening this small shop was not free, and she wanted to find a suitable partner. Now it seems that he should have found a suitable next home.

"Brother Su, are you kidding me? It hasn't been long since we opened the store, why did we close it?" Fatty spoke with a nasal tone, and she has been involved in the construction of the store since the first day. Come on, now that he is seeing the benefits step by step, how can he be willing to turn it off?

"Sometimes when you stop, you are preparing to take a big step forward. Fatty, although the small shop is about to close, it shows that Brother Su's business is going to a higher place! He has access to such a good source of goods, How can it be possible to open a small shop for a lifetime?"

Miao Ziyao's words immediately brought Pang Pang back to his senses, "Brother Su, you don't mean you want to make a big difference, right? Then... from now on, when your business starts, don't forget about us!"

"How could I forget you, don't worry, I will still need your help after my business starts!" Thinking of the next plan, Su Mu was full of confidence, "It's not time to open the door yet, let's go, let's put the These little fishes were picked up and salted, and then I looked up how to do it online."

Pangpang happily took the bucket, and was about to walk into the kitchen when he heard the words behind him, and immediately froze in place, "After talking for a long time, it turns out that you don't know how to do it at all, Brother Su! Miaomiao, why don't you come, otherwise Is this meal still available?"
